UNCTAD is organizing the Intersessional Panel of the United Nations Commission on Science and Technology for Development (CSTD) from 23 to 25 January 2017. The meeting will be held in Room XVII of the E-building in the Palais des Nations in Geneva.

With global growth now in its sixth flat year, many political leaders - including those that gathered for the G20 Summit in Hangzhou earlier this month - are looking to technology to create jobs and other economic opportunities.

The Acting Chairman of the 20th UN Commission on Science and Technology for Development (CSTD), Mr. Peter Major, invites the members of the WGEC to attend the first meeting of the Working Group of the Enhanced Cooperation, which will take place at the Palais des Nations in Geneva, on 30 September 2016.
